Answer:
A. "hope this helps"
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of red beads are increasing by 2 for each new pattern
The next number of reds will be 12. ( in patern 5)
number of blue beads in pattern 5 will be 15 ( increasing by 3 )
nth term for red = 4 + 2 (n-1) ( its an arithmetic sequence)
nth term for blue = 3 + 3(n - 1) - as above ,arithmetic.
Total beads in pattern 45 is
No. red beads in pattern 26 = 4 + 2(26-1) = 4 + 50 = 54
No blue beads in pattern 60 = 3 + 3(59) = 180
Total number of beads in pattern 45 is:-
4 + 2(44) + 3 + 3(44) = 227
Answer:
The speed on motorboat is 20 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
here, we want to find the speed on the motorboat
if he has a speed of x mph on the motor boat, his speed on the ski will be (x + 10) mph
The total hours is 4 hours
Mathematically; speed = distance/time
Time on ski is 27/x+ 10
Time on motor boat is 62/x
The addition of both is 4
Thus;
27/(x + 10) + 62/x = 4
27(x) + 62(x + 10) = 4(x)(x + 10)
27x + 62x + 620 = 4(x^2 + 10x)
89x + 620 = 4x^2 + 40x
4x^2 -49x-620 = 0
using the quadratic formula;
{-b ± √(b^2-4ac)}/2a
where a = 4, b = -49 and c = -620
= 49 ± √(-49)^2-4(4)(-620)/8
So we have
49+ 111/8 or 49-111/8
Speed cannot be negative
(49 + 111)/8
= 20 mph
